Volta, a mode where a user can play street soccer called Volta football, made its debut in 2020. And in the past couple of editions, there were hardly any narrations, as the game moves the user directly to a match-up against the computer.
Interestingly, that’s not the case with FIFA 22. The soon-to-arrive video game has a storyline in the load up to the game.

During the beginning of Volta mode, the user gets to pick their own character, choose their own suit and collect some tickets for a Champion’s League game; apparently a semi-final match between Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea. The user will be playing this match all by themself.
However, prior to this match, the character has a couple of awkward encounters with Joshua and Hamilton. These cameos could well have a connection to FIFA 21, where the two world champions were playable characters in ‘Volta Football’ mode.
Along with the duo, NBA star, Joel Embiid and pop star, Dua Lipa, also featured as playable characters.

Overall, Hamilton does hold a certain level of recognition in Football, having hailed from England and offering his major support to Arsenal. The Briton has even played Association Football in his school days alongside current Aston Villa full-back, Ashley Young.
